Comments Thread For: Fury's Promoter: Team Usyk Looked For a Way To Get Out

[diarraisagod]

I know which side I believe. Usyk who's fought a who's who, away from home and has a reputation for being easy to negotiate with.

Or team Fury and Warren who have a history of negotiation disputes.

They hit the lottery when Usyk agreed to 70-30 and have somehow still managed to torpedo the fight. Too many greedy people involved on Tyson's side.

Fury clearly didn't want this fight. Usyk kept agreeing and Fury and Hearn would move the goal post with another demand. One fighter always has issues negotiating fights and the other guy is no nonsense straight shooter who fights who is in front of him.

Hearn?? Do you mean Warren and Arum? Fury isn't with Eddie. Never has been.

Promoters the biggest cancer in this sport. F*** Frank Warren.

[Phase III]

Frank Warren and Fury are both idiots. Usyk agreed to 70/30 split which was so ****** of his handlers, but, that says he wants the fight. People this is boxing, everyone is FOS. The fight happens and I hope the Gypsy A/hole gets his ass KTFO!

[Phase III]

Whoever negotiated for Usyk should be fired on the spot. What a bunch of amateurs to agree to 70/30.

[turnedup]

Fury is one big joke at this point.

Ultimately seems like Fury's fault but Usyk took forever to agree to a split he actually deserved.

Man get out of here with that nonsense, making excuses. They kept moving the goalpost and kept being told ok let’s fight, Fury had ZERO actual intention of fighting Usyk after the Saudi money fell out from under the fight. It’s amazing watching you guys selectively present facts and selectively choosing when someone should fight for legacy and when to fight for money. We know one guy in this equation has shown this is about legacy, it sure ain’t fury, son.

Frank Warren ~ "The terms of the deal are really simple, it will be a 50/50 split, but it's where we can generate the most income to make it work."

“Is it 70-30, 60-40? This one is going to be 50-50. I spoke to Bob Arum today. He said that is a given"

Usyk was looking for a way out of the fight?

Is that why he accepted a 30/70 purse split after you moved the goalposts on the 50/50 deal?

Fuck off Frank. This is just adding insult to injury.

Really!! A climb down from 50:50 to 70:30 tells they tried to make the fight. Fury should STFU

[P4P Forever]

Fury seem scared AF.
